"web scale is one" Does "web scale" actually mean anything? I thought it was just a piss take from the "MongoDb is web scale" cartoon.

  i don't think people actually use the expression "web scale" seriously, but i can't tell if they're joking. poe's law or something.

    He sounded pretty serious in that post. Maybe I missed the joke.
